Alright, I tracked down some NDS people and asked some questions.

the RC1 patch is the final update for the game, the guy who made it verified this for me so this is whats happening.

1. He will upload it to somewhere permanant and have GOG change the link at the OP
2. He will be giving it to GOG so they can either fold it into their version permanently or make it an optional download.
3. He has given me a copy that I have uploaded to my GD account which is linked above.

So there you have it: THE RC1 PATCH IS THE MOST UP TO DATE VERSION OF THE GAME.

the GOG build is now RC1 patched and up to date.

There is still a unfixed bug

unlike in the DOS version the reactor destruct code is no longer random.
no word if a fix will happen, I have brought it to NDS' attention.

yeah, my money is on the integrated gpu, last time I've tried, I had to install a dedicated gpu (nv gf8400) to make it run. maybe try to start the game in the opengl mode, edit kexengine.cfg (should be in %APPDATA%\Nightdive Studios\System Shock EE\) and change seta r_rhirenderfamily "directx11" to seta r_rhirenderfamily "opengl"

a new patch is in the works, hopefully it will lower the gpu requirements again.

I have two weird problems with the game.

I run a Lenovo laptop with a Ryzen 7 4000 series,Windows 10, a GeForce GTX 1650, 16Gb RAM.

I reinstalled the game today and

-Problem #1: if I turn off VSync I get something like screen scanning on CRT TVs.
-Problem #2: I have screen remanence, IE the refresh screws up and I get different screens overlaying each other.

I tried switching the renderer from GPU to software, switching to a 4:3 resolution (1024x768) and going from D3D to OpenGL (though I think I could use Vulkan with my onboard AMD), nothing works after a while I get remanence and everything is unreadable.

Anyone has an idea? Maybe I should go into the nvidia control panel?

It's not mentioned which game is, but I'm assuming it is the first one as enhanced edition.
Thus looks like this discussion is your way to go.

Sorry, yeah it was SS1EE.
Forcing onboard graphics in the nvidia control panel fixed it for the time being but thanks for the link.

Just a heads-up, while lurking on Steam forums I learned that Nightdive borked their graphics driver while updating SS1EE and you have to force Vulkan in the settings, anything else causes refresh remanence.

Dunno if they patched it since, doubt it.

i just bought the game and noticed a horrible sort of burn in effect in the menus and in game, is that what you are referring to? ill try using vulkan real quick but im on integrated gpu so it might not work. if not ill have to try for a refund i guess
